Fiala wants Schillerová apology for comparing Pekarová Adamová to Zakharova

Prime Minister Petr Fiala of the Civic Democrats has called on Alena Schillerová of ANO to apologise after she compared TOP 09’s lower house speaker Marketá Pekarová Adamová to Maria Zakharova, the spokesperson for Russia Foreign Ministry, on social media.

The comment came after Ms. Pekarová Adamová referred on Tuesday to a previous statement from Ms. Schillerová, who said Czechs wanted to live in peace, not to prepare for war, and that the public shouldn’t be scared by threats of nuclear war.

The TOP 09 leader said it was in fact the Russians who were threatening nuclear war, which is why they must be defeated.
